There are some for sale in NL...
Tomorrow i go through all options with my mechanic and then make the descision :)
Tutuur, you can have broken the piston i guess.
Ill contact you tomorrow late on RTC.
Wow that's awesome!
Gonna look for a good second hand in holland, or a new one.
The engine is already taken apart, should be no problem for me to replace 1.
Thanks alot, you guys saved me alot of money :)
Proper pistons.. You mean forged? They have a compression rating of 8.5:1.
Not really needed, the ECU won't work with that.
The car is for daily use so no need for alot more BHP!
Well, i live in the Netherlands.
And i am not looking for second hand pistons really.. Sorry mate! Thanks tho.
Some other ppl with opinions about changing just 1?
Hello!!
Since my car broke down on the highway because 1 of my valve seals came of, piston number 4 is dead.
I'm in a need of a new piston!
I think you have to replace them as a set.
But because it's just 1 piston, my question was that if it's possible to replace just 1?
They are a bit...
Since i can't edit or change the main post, here's a vid from the sound!

Sometimes you can't hear it very well, but i think at 0:40 you can hear it the best!
Hmmmhmm, i'm not planning to replace the head:o
